Have you actually tried this out before ?
try this :
-------------
rpmbuild -bp --target i686 kernel-2.6.spec
mv ../BUILD/kernel-2.6.9 ../BUILD/kernel-2.6.9.i686
rpmbuild -bp --target x86_64 kernel-2.6.spec
cd ../BUILD
diff -uNr kernel-2.6.9.i686 kernel-2.6.9 | wc -l
15431
-------------
Can we, therefore, safely assume that source setup after a '-bp' is not
that arch independent really?

There is no kernel-sourcecode built by the CentOS buildsystem by default
( anymore ).
If you really need it - go grab the .src.rpm and rebuild to suite your
role / application requirement.
